Teaching is an art where the teacher/instructor perceives how the student's mind works so that he might tailor his presentation to get through. With poor teachers, another student often has to act an interpretor between a student question and the instructor. Dr. Campbell is a gifted teacher. He even anticipates one's question!

Thank you, doctor. I don't know if you will see my message. I come from China. Since the outbreak, I found your channel by chance and have been paying attention to every video made by you. You are the most objective, scientific and patient Vloger I found on RU-vid. I wish you and your family in the UK are good healthy, and my country and the world can get through the difficulties as soon as possible.
How difficult is it for someone, not in China, to get onto (create an account with) WeChat or Weibo? If that isn't possible, can someone pay an advertising company in China to do it for then, as a 3rd party? Thank you so much for your reply!

樊一鸣 Hi! A lot of people are saying the CCP mouthpieces are outright lying about the outbreak rate and other information about this pandemic. China and WHO are not informing the world of important information. CCP will “cut off nose to spite face” so-to-speak (attack their own country and the world to stifle protestors). CCP ego is extremely dangerous.
樊一鸣 I love Chinese people but loathe their evil government and the abuse towards the Chinese people. It is very sad and humanitarian crisis. I pray to our Heavenly Father that he will help the Chinese people rise above their captors.
Now this is concerning.. Be safe everybody. And John, I wish you and your loved ones the best. Thank you for making these updates, I am sure it takes a lot of time and energy. Please always take care of your health, even if it means not uploading.
I love how he explains all the acronyms and breaks down the material so even I can understand it. If he taught me in high school I would have went a lot further in life. Thank you sir!
If we don't stop the spread, 2 strains of covid will likely be circulating in an outbreak area, and it undoubtedly means that if people go to the hospital with one strain, they will get the other, which I assume makes it more deadly. Wash your hands, clean your phone, don't touch your eyes/nose/mouth after touching a public surface, stay home if you are sick, and do your best to stay arms distance from people (don't get so close you can smell what they ate for lunch- there will be tiny droplets that you will likely be inhaling). We can do this!
Dr Campbell, I already posted in this thread, but forgot to say...you should be awarded for your diligence in being the, "TRUTH BEARER", in this difficult time. Thank you.
Thank you, Dr. Campbell. Appreciate the explanations of mutations, but mutations are not evolution in the sense that new information is acquired resulting in an increasingly complex organism. This is analogous to antibiotic resistance where the pathogen mutates but doesn’t actually gain genetic information - it merely becomes altered as a result of exposure to antibiotics. This alteration or change only makes one type resistant to the medicine - dangerous to a susceptible host but the germ itself isn’t more “advanced” compared to its previous iteration.
Just thought I'd share that I had been struggling with finding a field regarding studying, but with all this ruckus happening I've come to the realisation that this field absolutely fascinates me, so the choice has finally been made, with thanks to you Mr. Campbell.
Thank you so much Dr Campbell. Your gift of taking a complicated subject and translating it in everyday speak is much appreciated. Cheers Vicki & Peter in locked down Melbourne Australia 😊
In the beginning I was very sceptical of your videos (because there are a great many people on yt claiming to have some kind of professional knowledge or other kind of authority on the topic - without actually having it) but over the past couple weeks your talent for keeping a balance between urgency/alertness and calmness along with a down to earth, matter of fact way in which you are clarifying issues in connection with Covid-19 have really impressed me! I now pick one of your very informative videos over one of the national broadcasters' / official news channels' videos with their sensationalist tabloid-level headlines (and reporting style) without hesitation - especially when they are right next to each other in my suggestions. Thank you for your continued service to the general public!
It's too bad knowledgeable people like Dr. Campbell are seldom allowed on useless tripe like Good Morning America while someone like Food Babe, who should be publicly shamed and ridiculed at every opportunity, would actually be taken seriously as a guest on such a show, even in the midst of a crisis.
Virus or no virus this is one of the most genuinely fascinating and informative videos that I have ever watched on RU-vid. It takes a man of great genius and humility like Dr. Campbell to make such complex biological-scientific information so accessible to the non-specialist.
Great idea! I'm sure he is busy, so maybe you can design it and share it with him for approval/to get the process started. I emailed Craghoppers to see if they would send him some free clothing, as he seems to like it and it would be a great way to advertise their product. So, far, only getting silence...
I'm not very innovative but maybe the dots on 'this', 'is' and 'concerning' could be spiky little Corona Virus germs 😁 and Dr. John Campbell circa 2020 underneath in small writing! If a person in the trade saw this maybe.
Mutations is not always bad. It depends on which of the an antigens shift. Hell it could become less severe and less contagious, less severe and more contagious etc
@@LMIMSsoi If there's L strain spreading around outside China, only a matter of time it becomes more wide-spread than S because it's more transmissible.
since individual tested posive in L form & S form Jan 21, now i am more concern abt how dumb US contained this virus any news abouth that individual tested on both form of virus now?
DR. JOHN , YOUR PRESENTACION WAS BRILLANT AND ALSO THE ENDIING .THIS WASH YOUR HANDS SIGN SHOULD BE A PERMANENT FEATURE . TAKE GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF , WE NEED YOU .
Anybody feel like this is the same as a bad dream where you get in a fight but can’t hit hard enough? Only difference is your telling facts but nobody wants to hear them...
Dr. John Campbell should be the chief public educator at the WHO. What good are a thousand doctorates if you can’t explain these concepts to the layman like John can?
I'm getting very tired of people who don't understand WHO. Their primary mission is not to cure anything; WHO is a political organization, a branch of the U.N., to encourage countries to work together in times of medical emergency ... '.... that said, it's not true (2nd thoughts). Their primary job is to gather and disseminate medical information from countries around the world. Then [reinsert emergency sentence]. WHO can't do their job if China loses face and then refuses to share any information. Retired librarian , Michigan P.S. For that matter Dr. C. is far too kind to China IMHO, but he knows science politics too.
@@veralenora4033 how has China refused to share anything? considering most of this research IS coming out of China (including the one you're watching in this video!?). Or is this a classic case of "blame China"?
@@veralenora4033 I agree that there are two many people who don't get the WHO - and (scarily!) ask to dismantle it. However, I believe (just as many other virologists) that China did a great job containing the virus. If they hadn't covered it up at the beginning it would have been even more effective.
I'm glad he is not part of WHO. I would switch channel / video the moment WHO comes into picture. WHO is a joke, corrupt and Chinese influenced political organization- it's not what it should stand for.
Once again, thank you for this work and for sharing it. Indiana, USA, is finally catching up with you (though still not as drastically as we should). But, thanks to YOU, our family prepared weeks ago.
I think we need a video on the best ways to overcome the virus at home. We could end up with the hospitals overburdened and attempting to live through it at home safer than the potential chaos and wait at the hospital. That being the case could you think through the best strategy at home, and further what strategies commonly used might be counterproductive. I think that’s what we’re looking at in the future.
There are tons of "survival" videos on line...we been stocking up for two weeks already....just in case...good idea watching those videos becuse I thought of things I wouldn't have remembered. Just a thought. ❤💯 Be well!
@Tim Keep - in all sincerity I hope that if I do get sick I am able to just stay home and do what I can to kick it. I would feel much safer in my room that I know I clean and not be in a hospital with other maybe sicker people plus doctors and nurses going from patient to patient. The thought of a hospital is scary.
I am very thankful to find you site. I am one of those people who need every single detail explained and every possible fact told to me in order to feel comfortable about emergencies and stressful events. Thank you. :)
you're taking the ideal of the BBC to real. Educate, inform, and then, entertain. This is not only a daily update of the expanding virus crisis, but schooling for all of us. Good on ya' Dr...
Thank you for the information Dr. Campbell. I consider myself fortunate to have come across your channel and appreciate the work you’re doing. Keep well Dr. and please keep the updates coming!
I cannot say how soothing and helpful your videos have been and how thankful I am to have discovered your Channel! You're the only person speaking calmly and intelligently information that can only help.
From this moment I subscribe to canal Dr. John Campell. I am a Polish and reliabe lectures clearly communicated Dr. J. Campbell on COVID-19 makes a very positive impression no me. An excellent lecturer, explains such an important problem at the moment. In polish media THEY domnplay COV, because thay are not prepared. I know that the author of this channel will not save me, but greather AVARNESS causses that I will not be fooled fake news or groundless optimism. Thank You very much.
I think your video is very clear and wonderful. I am going to recommend this one to my freshmen class taking an introduction course into comparative genetics and theoretical biology.
Dr. Campbell does not make me nervous. He seems to be the only virologist who is telling it like is! I appreciate that as I understand some of the medical terminology. I don't pretend to understand this one as no-one really does! Dr. Campbell has a sooting way of making the "leman" get it!
Helvécio yes I love his classes too...lol...this guy should be a uni lecturer as I could listen to him all day. He knows how to explain things so most can understand.
Thanks for the info .love the science of cells and construction of same. I shall watch all your lectures. Learned the basics 57 years ago during nurse training and always found it fascinating. Thanks .
You are a terrific teacher. Your talks are so easy to understand and follow. Thank you for doing these videos and teaching us about this disease and about viruses in general. Keep it up
A fantastic explanation, but to be certain, I'll definitely be listening to it all again! Fascinating how these diseases can work though. Very many thanks indeed Dr Campbell, you're a blessing to us all.
only you could explain something so detailed, and I still be able to understand. thank you so much for this. yes, we can't lose sight of the clean hands. How many people now wash their hands, and Dr. Campbell's image magically appears in their head? lol
Yo thank you sooo much for being much more transparent n informative than most news within the USA during these trying times u have a great channel extremely informative n how can u reach a platform with a louder voice since i believe ur voice is a sobering sense of leadership driven by science n not politics
This is concerning. Now we need widespread testing/gene sequencing and analysis of outcomes for both strains. Also, more analysis of possible reinfection and immunity.
@@rainrabbit9209 it's hard to explain to people that you can't just click your fingers and get a result. Specificity and accuracy take precision, precision takes time. In the mean time it's HAVOC! Also, I want toilet paper so please stay calm guys.
@@2ebarman Yes they did, because it's the exact sequence of what they have been modifying on the SARS-COV virus with bat-Cov, there is more than 10 years of published papers about this. We did it here in the US with the UNC and made such a scary Corona virus, we banned that kind of medical work. The ban was only lifted in Dec 2017 once we found out the research just moved to the only other country besides US and Europe with the BSL-4 lab they study Coronavirus's at. That's Wuhan
Brilliant explanation! "Social isolation is the key" "The Chinese did us a favour by locking down" Meanwhile the UK stance is Wash your hands and carry on...
Yeah, they’ve done us a huge favor by allowing wet market cesspools to continue to exist so that virus after virus after virus can originate from them and fuck the world over and over and over again.
@@Lazarus_ and what people in the US UK Italy etc do? Battle of the Oranges, musical concerts, all kinds of public activities/gatherings, did any of these governments take precautions to protect their citizens?
Stephen as a real American I exercise my free speech after studying the origins of issues and not blindly accepting what my government tells me without research. Meaning, I’m skeptical it’s only from China. Russia borders China and contained CoVID to under 100. Were in opposite hemisphere and have the worst mutation. This is a single stranded RNA with PERFECT properties to enter body as a protein. Such a detailed virus infects a country whom we owe trillions of dollars to. What a coincidence .. and we can’t afford multi billion dollar SMB amnesty programs to paid leave for all Americans but can afford trillions for a month of US warfare. Things don’t add up, do they?
You are always welcome in my home, good doctor. Even when I’m in my bathrobe, unwashed with my hair standing straight up. I’ll still have a cuppa and try to keep up. You are always most welcome.
What do you mean? Didn't you hear your fearless leader? He said the number of cases would soon be 'zero'. And he put a religious fanatic who doesn't believe in science in charge of combating this. What's to worry about??
If it blows up here in the state everyone in the world will see how dysfunctional the US really is. It will be a madhouse here in the states. Homeless people, poor people, lawsuits. Good look locking down cities here.
There are some really selfish people in this world. I read about people returning from a vacation and refuse wanting to be tested for corona, even though they have symptoms. Others still take the risk to take their vacation, because they can't get their money back. And then other people WANT to be tested but can't get a hold of anyone...
It's too late. The virus is everywhere. Only thing people can do is stay away from people the best they can. I've been paying attention to infections of flight attendants. When those numbers start to increase, "Houston we have a problem", a major one!
A lot of doctors surgeries have closed for deep cleaning here in UK. Sounds like the infected are turning up there, rather than ringing 111 as advised.
I remember when i started following different channels on RU-vid on this virus. And this was really early. Like 4-5 January. On one of the video's that i saw really early on. There was one comment from a person saying "this virus alredy outsmarted us".
I'm really appalled at the response to this in the US. My daughter works in the OR, if concern is raised about this, the people expressing concern are mocked or laughed at by the DOCTORS and other nurses. How do you prepare for something when you're surrounded by arrogant imbeciles who say "meh.. it's just the flu" or it's a hoax? We have another friend who's a nurse practitioner and she's putting out memes on Facebook mocking people and calling this a media hoax smh. It's disgraceful!
Chris Nord when a country that poisoned its own people (cut off the nose to spite the face) does this, the US has a serious problem. That said, China is no saint as they are guilty of the worst humanitarian crimes. This virus is one of them.
I am not suprised to hear this! The president has created this mindset and mocking of others ! It is disgusting. I find it very scary to sit and wait for this virus to hit my state knowing Drs are not testing .
To Mike X: Scientists around the world share genome sequences on an online database. These scientific papers are also published online. They are all subject to peer review. There is a lot of information carried within the genome sequences. If some scientists "lie", they will eventually be "caught". This is the beauty of science.
Should it be the case... Let's pray that not all scientists lie to us at all times... Otherwise we all need to rethink, have humans ever gone to the moon or not ....
@@Seven-gc5tf Yep, this is true. Just think about tomatoes... During my lifetime, 40 years, i have heard 3 diferent opinions about tomatoes by the science.. First tomatoes were super good for the body... then about 2 decades ago, they started saying consuming too much tomatoes was bad because it was though to be cancerous.. Nowadays, tomatoes are super healthy again...Many times, economical interested is in middle, so yeah.. science is sometimes a popularity contest as you just have said...
Brilliant, this is now making sense to me. Thankyou Dr. When you understand how things work or (not) then you can work with advice etc and you are better prepared. Nice to be treated like sensible human beings that can understand basic explanations and not be treated like mushrooms left (in the dark).
I live in Washington. In a rural area. It’s an hour drive to the Costco. A week ago yesterday before the news broke that the virus was in Seattle I decided that I would beat the crowds and I went to the Costco an hour drive away. I was healthy and had no had a flu or cold since 2010. So as extra precaution, I wore a mask and gloves and had wipes in my purse. Got loaded up and went home. Then a week ago today, I had one more trip to my local small town bank for end of month bills. As I’m standing in line, the man in front of me starts coughing and sneezing... ALOT...and I’m behind him and he is coughing all over the place. That was last WED. on Sunday I started with sore throat. I have been in bed since this past Monday. It hit me hard and fast. I’m NOT leaving my house for the next 2 months.... maybe 3!😷😷😷😷😷😷 I wonder how many others in the bank also got sick.
John, Thank you for making these videos! I've been watching you since the first video you made about COVID-19 and I've learned so much about how viruses work. I like how you go into detail and explain the science in a way that's easy to understand, but without "dumbing" it down and oversimplifying it.
Shocking the amount of patients we've had today in outpatients coming in for appointments with chest infections. We are not yet told to wear masks 😷 (UK)
limited resources. Governments need to limit the competition with the populace of the needed resources to deal with the pandemic. example; competing for masks & making sure health care workers have enough. They are simply prioritizing available resources.
@@michaelhorton6418 I am a health care worker, (NHS) as yet we have not been told to wear masks. Patients Drs and staff members have been coughing all over place in the hospital. 🤦♀️
@McDonalds Farmer I am very low down in the food chain I'm afraid. The trust has to go on advice from the government. As yet this is not on the agenda. Maybe soon? Who knows. Basically we are to carry on as normal with regular hand washing which we all do anyway, even before this virus came about. An email from little old me will make no difference.
The NHS supply chains advice, currently we have to be resourceful with stock - www.supplychain.nhs.uk/news-article/nhs-supply-chains-response-for-managing-any-cases-of-novel-coronavirus-covid-19-infections/?CatalogueBanner04032020&Web&Coronavirus
@McDonalds Farmer just to clarify I'm an SHCA (auxillary nurse) I have direct clinical contact with patients. I assist consultants with clinical proceedures. I don't have any dealings with food in my role. NHS equipment is supplied by our dedicated NHS supply chain, we would not be permitted to bring in anything not sourced through the supply chain. Thank you for your kind words and concern. ❤
